Jaylen Fleer is a former San Diego County sheriff’s deputy who was sentenced to 12 years in state prison for committing sex acts with underage girls and trying to meet up with minors for sex. He pleaded guilty to 18 felonies and two misdemeanors, including contacting minors to commit a sexual offense, sharing material to seduce minors and engaging in oral copulation with a minor. The case involved four victims between the ages of 12 and 14, but prosecutors contend that Fleer contacted more than four underage girls over social media.
Jaylen Fleer’s Arrest and Conviction
Jaylen Fleer was arrested on July 24, 2020, after a four-month investigation by the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. The investigation was initiated after a private investigator discovered Fleer’s Snapchat records, which contained evidence of his sexual misconduct with minors. Fleer was charged with 20 sex offenses involving four minor victims. The charges included contacting minors to commit a sexual offense, sharing material to seduce minors, and engaging in oral copulation with a minor.
Fleer worked in San Diego County’s jails and courts before his arrest. He was 27 years old at the time of his sentencing, according to Times of Sandiego. Fleer later appealed from his 12-year prison sentence, but the court declined to impose the maximum sentence.
Deputy District Attorney Jalyn Wang said Fleer sought out young girls, offered them money to coax them into meeting with him, and engaged in sexual acts with them. Wang also said that Fleer contacted 41 underage girls on social media, some as young as nine years old. He used fake names and profiles to lure them into his trap.
Jaylen Fleer’s Sentence and Appeal
On June 18, 2021, Jaylen Fleer was sentenced to 12 years in state prison without parole and must register as a sex offender for life. He also received five years of probation after his release from prison. He was ordered to pay restitution to the victims and undergo sex offender treatment.
Fleer’s attorney, Michael Berg, asked for leniency, saying that Fleer had completed 46 therapy sessions and accepted responsibility for his actions. Berg also said that Fleer had a wife and a son who depended on him. However, the judge rejected Berg’s request, saying that Fleer’s crimes were heinous and predatory.
Fleer appealed his sentence, arguing that it was excessive and disproportionate to his crimes. He also claimed that he was not given enough time to prepare for his sentencing hearing. However, the Fourth District Court of Appeal denied his appeal on September 29, 2021, saying that his sentence was within the legal range and that he had waived his right to challenge it by pleading guilty.
